Roald Dahl's Book of Ghost Stories

Description

Scare yourself silly with Roald Dahl's Book of Ghost Stories, all handpicked by the man himself.

"Spookiness is the real purpose of the ghost story. It should give you the creeps and disturb your thoughts…"

Who better to choose the ultimate in spine-chillers than the master of macabre Roald Dahl, a writer whose own stories have enthralled and teased and twisted the imaginations of millions?
